Executive Overview

Business and Investment Strategy



We are a self-administered health care real estate investment trust ("REIT")
that invests in seniors housing and health care properties through
sale-leaseback transactions, mortgage financing and structured finance solutions
including mezzanine lending. We conduct and manage our business as one operating
segment, rather than multiple operating segments, for internal reporting and
internal decision-making purposes. Our primary objectives are to create, sustain
and enhance stockholder equity value and provide current income for distribution
to stockholders through real estate investments in seniors housing and health
care properties managed by experienced operators.

The following graph summarizes our gross investments as of June 30, 2020:

[[Image Removed: Graphic]]



Our primary seniors housing and health care property classifications include
skilled nursing centers ("SNF"), assisted living communities ("ALF"),
independent living communities ("ILF"), memory care communities ("MC") and
combinations thereof. ALF, ILF, MC, and combinations thereof are included in the
ALF classification. As of June 30, 2020, seniors housing and long-term health
care properties comprised approximately 99.3% of our real estate investment
portfolio. We have been operating since August 1992.

Substantially all of our revenues and sources of cash flows from operations are
derived from operating lease rentals, interest earned on outstanding loans
receivable and income from investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. Our
investments in owned properties and mortgage loans represent our primary source
of liquidity to fund distributions and are dependent upon the performance of the
operators on their lease and loan obligations and the rates earned thereon. To
the extent that the operators experience operating difficulties and are unable
to generate sufficient cash to make payments to us, there could be a material
adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or
financial condition. To mitigate this risk, we monitor our investments through a
variety of methods determined by property type and operator. Our monitoring
process includes periodic review of financial statements for each facility,
periodic review of operator credit, scheduled property inspections and review of
covenant compliance.

In addition to our monitoring and research efforts, we also structure our
investments to help mitigate payment risk. Some operating leases and loans are
credit enhanced by guaranties and/or letters of credit. In addition, operating
leases are typically structured as master leases and loans are generally cross-

                                       26

defaulted and cross-collateralized with other loans, operating leases or agreements between us and the operator and its affiliates.

COVID-19



On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of
coronavirus ("COVID-19") as a pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the United States
declared a national emergency with regard to COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic has
had repercussions across regional and global economies and financial markets.
The outbreak of COVID-19 in many countries, including the United States, has
significantly and adversely impacted public health and economic activity, and
has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial
markets.

The operations and occupancy levels at our properties will be adversely affected
if COVID-19 or another pandemic results in infections on a large scale at our
properties, early resident move-outs, our operators delay accepting new
residents due to quarantines, and/or potential occupants postpone moving to a
senior housing facility. Additionally, as our operators have responded to the
pandemic, operating costs have begun to rise. A decrease in occupancy, ability
to collect rents from residents and/or increase in operating costs could have a
material adverse effect on the ability of our operators to meet their financial
and other contractual obligations to us, including the payment of rent. In
recognition of the pandemic impact affecting our operators, we have agreed to
rent deferrals for certain operators totaling $0.9 million, approximately 2% of
contractual rent, for April through June 2020. Additionally, we granted deferred
rent of $0.1 million for July 2020. Through July 2020, we have received $0.3
million of deferred rent payments. The remaining balance of deferred rent is due
to LTC over the next 24 months or upon receipt of government funds from the U.S.
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (the "CARES Act").

The extent to which COVID-19 could impact our operations and those of our
operators will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and
cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration, spread and severity
of the outbreak and the actions taken to contain the virus or mitigate its
impact, and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and
containment measures.

As of June 30, 2020, we had $1.4 billion in net carrying value of real estate
investments, consisting of $1.1 billion or 81.3% invested in owned and leased
properties and $0.3 billion or 18.7% invested in mortgage loans secured by first
mortgages. Our investment in mortgage loans mature in 2043 and beyond and
contain interest rates between 9.2% and 9.9%.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, rental income and interest income from
mortgage loans represented 77.9% and 20.8%, respectively, of total gross
revenues. In most instances, our lease structure contains fixed annual rental
escalations and/or annual rental escalations that are contingent upon changes in
the Consumer Price Index, which are generally recognized on a straight-line
basis over the minimum lease period. Certain leases have annual rental
escalations that are contingent upon changes in the gross operating revenues of
the property. This revenue is not recognized until the appropriate contingencies
have been resolved.

During the six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no lease renewals.
Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we consolidated our four leases with Brookdale
Senior Living Communities, Inc ("Brookdale") into one master lease and extended
the term by one year to December 31, 2021. The master lease provides three
renewal options consisting of a four-year renewal option, a five-year renewal
option and a 10-year renewal option.

For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded $1.5 million in straight-line rental income and amortization of lease incentive cost of $0.4 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we



                                       28

received $74.8 million of cash rental income, which includes $8.3 million of
operator reimbursements for our real estate taxes. At June 30, 2020, the
straight-line rent receivable balance, net of reserves, on the balance sheet was
$29.6 million.

Update on Certain Operators


An affiliate of Senior Lifestyle Corporation ("Senior Lifestyle") operates 23
properties under a master lease with a combination of independent living,
assisted living and memory care units. Senior Lifestyle was provided partial
deferred rent in April 2020. However, Senior Lifestyle failed to pay full rent
for May and June of 2020. Contractual rent for the quarter was $4.6 million of
which we collected $1.8 million. The remaining outstanding accounts receivable
balance of $2.8 million is covered by a letter of credit and security deposit
totaling $3.6 million. In July 2020, we received $1.1 million of their
contractual rent of $1.5 million. In accordance with ASC 842, we evaluated the
collectibility of receiving substantially all of our lease payments from the
Senior Lifestyle master lease through maturity and determined that we did not
have the level of certainty required by the standard. Accordingly, we wrote-off
a total $17.7 million of straight-line rent receivable and lease incentives
related to this master lease. As a result, we placed Senior Lifestyle on a cash
basis effective July 2020. We are evaluating our options for the portfolio which
may include a combination of re-leasing and selling some or all of the
properties.

Anthem Memory Care ("Anthem") operates 11 operational memory care communities
under a master lease and was placed in default in 2017 resulting from Anthem's
partial payment of its minimum rent. However, we did not enforce our rights and
remedies pertaining to the event of default, under the stipulation that Anthem
achieves sufficient performance and pays agreed upon rent. We currently
anticipate that Anthem will pay $9.9 million of annual cash rent during 2020.
However, COVID-19 may adversely impact Anthem's operating cash flow and ability
to pay rent. In accordance with ASC 842 lease accounting guidance, at January 1,
2019, we evaluated the collectibility of straight-line rent receivable and lease
incentive balances related to Anthem and determined that it was not probable
that we would collect substantially all of the contractual lease obligations
through maturity. Accordingly, we wrote-off the balances to equity as of January
1, 2019, as required by the ASC 842 transition guidance. Anthem is current on
rent payments through July 2020. Anthem is current on rent payments through July
2020.

Preferred Care, Inc. ("Preferred Care") and affiliated entities filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2017 as a result of a multi-million-dollar judgment in
a lawsuit in Kentucky against Preferred Care and certain affiliated entities.
Preferred Care leased 24 properties ("Properties") under two master leases from
us and the Preferred Care operating entities that sublease those Properties did
not file for bankruptcy. In accordance with ASC 842 lease accounting guidance,
at January 1, 2019, we evaluated the collectibility of straight-line rent
receivable and lease incentive balances related to Preferred Care and determined
it was not probable that we would collect substantially all of the contractual
lease obligations through maturity. Accordingly, we wrote-off the balances to
equity as of January 1, 2019, as required by the ASC 842 transition guidance.
Preferred Care did not affirm our master leases and subsequently filed for
Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2019.

During the fourth quarter of 2019, we entered into multiple contracts to sell
the Properties, all of which were completed during the first quarter of 2020.
The combined net proceeds from the sales, including the 2019 transactions, was
approximately $77.9 million resulting in a total gain of approximately $44.0
million. The Properties had a combined net book value of $35.6 million. The 21
properties sold in the first quarter of 2020, which included 2,411 beds in
Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas and Texas, were sold through multiple
transactions and generated net proceeds of $72.1 million. These 21 properties
had a combined net book value of $29.1 million and resulted in total gain on
sale of $44.0 million which was recorded as Gain on sale of real estate, net in
the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Senior Care Centers, LLC and affiliates and subsidiaries ("Senior Care") filed
for Chapter 11 bankruptcy as a result of lease terminations from certain
landlords and on-going operational challenges in December 2018. Senior Care did
not pay us December 2018 rent and accordingly, in December 2018, we placed
Senior Care on a cash basis. In accordance with ASC 842 lease accounting
guidance, at January 1, 2019, we evaluated the collectibility of the
straight-line rent receivable and lease incentive balance related to Senior Care
and determined it was not probable that we would collect substantially all of
the contractual lease obligations through maturity. Accordingly, we wrote-off
the balances to equity as of January 1, 2019, as required by the ASC 842
transition guidance. During 2019, we received a court ordered reimbursement from
Senior Care for the December 2018 unpaid rent, late fees and legal costs
totaling $1.6 million. In March 2020, Senior Care emerged from bankruptcy and
affirmed our master lease. Senior Care is current on all its rent, real estate
property tax escrow and maintenance deposits. Senior Care is current on rent
payments through 2020.

Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we consolidated our four leases with Brookdale into
one master lease and extended the term by one year to December 31, 2021. The
master lease provides three renewal options consisting of a four-year renewal
option, a five-year renewal option and a 10-year renewal option. The notice
period for the first renewal option is January 1, 2021 to April 30, 2021. The
economic terms of rent remain the same as the consolidated rent terms under the
previous four separate lease agreements.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures



We had a preferred equity investment in an unconsolidated joint venture that
owned four communities located in Arizona, providing independent living,
assisted living and memory care services. During the first quarter of 2020, the
four properties comprising the joint venture were sold. Accordingly, we received
partial liquidation proceeds of $17.5 million and recorded an additional $0.6
million loss. We anticipate receiving additional proceeds of $1.0 million.

Health Care Regulatory Climate



The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services ("CMS") annually updates Medicare
skilled nursing facility ("SNF") prospective payment system rates and other
policies. On July 30, 2019, CMS issued its final fiscal year 2020 Medicare
skilled nursing facility update. Under the final rule, CMS projects aggregate
payments to SNFs will increase by $851 million, or 2.4%, for fiscal year 2020
compared with fiscal year 2019. The final rule also addresses implementation of
the new Patient-Driven Payment Model case mix classification system that became
effective on October 1, 2019, changes to the group therapy definition in the
skilled nursing facility setting, and various SNF Value-Based Purchasing and
quality reporting program policies. On April 10, 2020, CMS issued a proposed
rule to update SNF rates and policies for fiscal year 2021, which starts October
1, 2020. CMS estimates that payments to SNFs would increase by $784 million, or
2.3%, for fiscal year 2021 compared to fiscal year 2020. CMS also proposes to
revise the geographic wage index and apply a cap on wage index decreases used in
setting SNF rates. The proposal would also make changes to the patient
classifications under the Patient Driven Payment Model and certain minor policy
changes to the Value-Based Purchasing program. CMS is expected to release the
final rule by August 1, 2020.

Since the announcement of the COVID-19 pandemic and beginning as of March 13,
2020, CMS has issued numerous temporary regulatory waivers and new rules to
assist health care providers, including SNFs, respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
These include, waiving the SNFs 3-day qualifying inpatient hospital stay
requirement, flexibility in calculating a new Medicare benefit period, waiving
timing for completing functional assessments, waiving requirements for health
care professional licensure, survey and certification, provider enrollment, and
reimbursement for services performed by telehealth, among many others. CMS also
announced a temporary expansion of its Accelerated and Advance Payment Program
to allow SNFs and certain other Medicare providers to request accelerated or
advance payments in an amount up to 100% of the Medicare Part A payments they
received from October-December 2019;

                                       32

this expansion was suspended April 26, 2020 in light of other CARES Act funding
relief. In addition, CMS has also enhanced requirements for nursing facilities
to report COVID-19 infections to local, state and federal authorities. On July
23, 2020, HHS Secretary Azar announced that he had renewed the declared public
health emergency-previously set to expire July 25, 2020-for an additional 90-day
period.

On March 26, 2020, President Trump signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief,
and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), sweeping legislation intended to
bolster the nation's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to offering
economic relief to individuals and impacted businesses, the law expands coverage
of COVID-19 testing and preventative services, addresses health care workforce
needs, eases restrictions on telehealth services during the crisis, and
increases Medicare regulatory flexibility, among many other provisions. Notably,
the CARES Act temporarily suspends the 2% across-the-board "sequestration"
reduction during the period May 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, and extends
the current Medicare sequester requirement through fiscal year 2030. In
addition, the law provides $100 billion in grants to eligible health care
providers for health care related expenses or lost revenues that are
attributable to COVID-19. On April 10, 2020, CMS announced the distribution of
$30 billion in funds to Medicare providers based upon their 2019 Medicare fee
for service revenues. Eligible providers were required to agree to certain terms
and conditions in receiving these grants. In addition, the Department of Health
and Human Services ("HHS") authorized $20 billion of additional funding for
providers that have already received funds from the initial distribution of $30
billion. Unlike the first round of funds, which came automatically, providers
were required to apply for these additional funds and submit the required
supporting documentation, using the online portal provided by HHS. Providers
were required to attest to and agree to specific terms and conditions for the
use of such funds. HHS expressed a goal of allocating the whole $50 billion
proportionally across all providers based on those providers' proportional share
of 2018 net Medicare fee-for-service revenue, so that some providers will not be
eligible for additional funds. On May 22, 2020, HHS announced that it had begun
distributing $4.9 billion in additional relief funds to SNFs to offset revenue
losses and assist nursing homes with additional costs related to responding to
the COVID-19 public health emergency and the shipments of personal protective
equipment provided to nursing homes by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
On June 9, 2020, HHS announced that it expects to distribute approximately $15
billion to eligible providers that participate in state Medicaid and Children's
Health Insurance Program ("CHIP") programs and have not received a payment from
the Provider Relief Fund General Allocation. The application deadline for these
funds is August 3, 2020. Finally, on July 22, 2020, President Trump announced
that HHS will devote $5 billion in Provider Relief Funds to Medicare-certified
long-term care facilities and state veterans' homes to build nursing home skills
and enhance nursing homes' response to COVID-19, including enhanced infection
control. Nursing homes must participate in the Nursing Home COVID-19 training to
be qualified to receive this funding.

On July 18, 2019, CMS published a final rule that eliminates the prohibition on
pre-dispute binding arbitration agreements between long-term care facilities and
their residents. The rule also strengthens the transparency of arbitration
agreements and makes other changes to arbitration requirements for long-term
care facilities. There can be no assurance that these rules or future
regulations modifying Medicare skilled nursing facility payment rates or other
requirements for Medicare and/or Medicaid participation will not have an adverse
effect on the financial condition of our borrowers and lessees which could, in
turn, adversely impact the timing or level of their payments to us.

Congress periodically considers legislation revising Medicare and Medicaid
policies, including legislation that could have the impact of reducing Medicare
reimbursement for SNFs and other Medicare providers, limiting state Medicaid
funding allotments, encouraging home and community-based long-term care services
as an alternative to institutional settings, or otherwise reforming payment
policy for post-acute care services. Congress continues to consider further
legislative action in response to the

COVID-19 pandemic. There can be no assurances that enacted or future legislation
will not have an adverse impact on the financial condition of our lessees and
borrowers, which subsequently could materially adversely impact our company.

Additional reforms affecting the payment for and availability of health care
services have been proposed at the federal and state level and adopted by
certain states. Increasingly, state Medicaid programs are providing coverage
through managed care programs under contracts with private health plans, which
is intended to decrease state Medicaid costs. State Medicaid budgets may
experience shortfalls due to increased costs in addressing the COVID-19
pandemic. Congress and state legislatures can be expected to continue to review
and assess alternative health care delivery systems and payment methodologies.
Changes in the law, new interpretations of existing laws, or changes in payment
methodologies may have a dramatic effect on the definition of permissible or
impermissible activities, the relative costs associated with doing business and
the amount of reimbursement by the government and other third-party payors.

Key Performance Indicators, Trends and Uncertainties



We utilize several key performance indicators to evaluate the various aspects of
our business. These indicators are discussed below and relate to concentration
risk and credit strength. Management uses these key performance indicators to
facilitate internal and external comparisons to our historical operating results
in making operating decisions and for budget planning purposes.

Concentration Risk. We evaluate by gross investment our concentration risk in
terms of asset mix, real estate investment mix, operator mix and geographic mix.
Concentration risk is valuable to understand what portion of our real estate
investments could be at risk if certain sectors were to experience downturns.
Asset mix measures the portion of our investments that are real property or
mortgage loans. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts
("NAREIT"), an organization representing U.S. REITs and publicly traded real
estate companies, classifies a company with 50% or more of assets directly or
indirectly in the equity ownership of real estate as an equity REIT. Investment
mix measures the portion of our investments that relate to our various property
classifications. Operator mix measures the portion of our investments that
relate to our top five operators. Geographic mix measures the portion of our
real estate investment that relate to our top five states.

Credit Strength. We measure our credit strength both in terms of leverage ratios
and coverage ratios. Our leverage ratios include debt to gross asset value and
debt to market capitalization. The leverage ratios indicate how much of our
consolidated balance sheet capitalization is related to long-term obligations.
Our coverage ratios include interest coverage ratio and fixed charge coverage
ratio. The coverage ratios indicate our ability to service interest and fixed
charges (interest). The coverage ratios are based on earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization for real estate ("EBITDAre") as defined by
NAREIT. EBITDAre is calculated as net income available to common stockholders
(computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding (i) interest expense, (ii) income
tax expense, (iii) real estate depreciation and amortization, (iv) impairment
write-downs of depreciable real estate, (v) gains or losses on the sale of
depreciable real estate, and (vi) adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships
and joint ventures. Leverage ratios and coverage ratios are widely used by
investors, analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and
investment recommendations of companies. The following table reflects the recent
historical trends for our credit strength measures:
